Hi, I am trying to install a midlet by sending a wap-push message. I have tested it successfully on series 40 phones (6610, 3510i) and Sony Ericsson T610.

However I get an error (i.e unable to install) when testing it on 3650 or 7650.

If instead of downloading application via wap-push I write the url to the jad file in the wap browser I am able to download and install the application without any problems.

I am using NowSMS and clickatell for sending wap-push messages.

Any help/comments will be appreciated

Hi Shumail,
Any API in J2ME for 6610 and so on support WAP PUSH ?
Regards and Happy New Year.

Are you pushing the URL to the JAD file directly?

I'm not sure about the 3650/7650, but many phones do not like to receive a push directly to a piece of content.

For some reason, they expect to see a markup language page first, and then an "a href" link from the markup page to the content.

Another idea, would be to push the JAR instead of the JAD. Since a JAD triggers a JAR download, it is possible that the phones you are having a problem with just do not expect to receive a URL pointing to a JAD in a push.

Hi Shumail,

What do you mean by installing a MIdlet by sending a WAP Push? You mean you sent the URL to the Jar/Jad, right? Or were you able to directly install the midlet? If, how did you do that?
